Take the Journey - The Stupid Screenwriting Secret You've Been DYING for

"Taking the journey"with your characters is one of the hardest things to learn in screenwriting.

But it's like learning how to ride a bike.  Once you do it, you say "Oh haha that was easy, idiot."

Here's a hint:
When your character fails during a scene...and you're stuck and don't know what to have them do next...put those stuck feelings into your characters actions and dialog.  They're stuck too!
If you feel like you wanna give up on the story...
If you feel like you don't feel like writing it anymore...
If you feel like you want to start that other awesome story idea you had....

Put those goddamn feelings into the story you're working on now!

Once you do that...well...you might just start to understand how to write a story with emotional impact!
